		Media Prima had been placed on Rating Watch on 14 June 2005 pursuant to its announcement that it had bought a 98%-stake in Ch-9 Media Sdn Bhd (“Ch-9 Media”), the operator of Channel 9.
		The above ratings are based on Media Prima’s continued dominance over the local free-to-air (“FTA”) television (“TV”) industry, with the lion’s share of 53% of non-discounted FTA TV advertising expenses (“adex”) in 2004.
		Media Prima’s gearing ratio is expected to inch towards 1 time while its operating cashflow debt cover would be squeezed to a minimum of 0.20 times upon the full drawdown of the proposed CEB in FYE 31 December 2005 (“FY Dec 2005”).
